New Year 2011

Celebrating New Year is all about, how to say good bye to last day of the previous year and welcome the coming New Year with full joy, grace and happiness. The New Year is the day that marks the beginning of a new calender year. The celebration of the new year is the oldest of all holidays. It was first observed in ancient Babylon about 4000 years ago. In the years around 2000 BC, the Babylonian New Year began with the first New Moon (actually the first visible cresent) after the Vernal Equinox (first day of spring).

The beginning of spring is a logical time to start a new year. After all, it is the season of rebirth, of planting new crops, and of blossoming. January 1, on the other hand, has no astronomical nor agricultural significance. It is purely arbitrary.

Generally Lunar calendar (Hindu calendar is also based on the movement of the Moon) has been the base of calculations from the ancient times. Most of these celebrations are based on the months in the Lunar Hindu Calendar.

A unique feature of the Hindu calendar is that all other systems use the current ordinal number of the year as the year label. But just as a person's true age is measured by the number of years that have elapsed starting from the date of the person's birth, the Hindu calendar measures the number of years elapsed. As of May 18, 2010, 5111 years had elapsed in the Hindu calendar. However, the lunisolar calendar year usually starts earlier than the solar calendar year,so the exact year will not begin on the same day every year.

New Year is also termed as First Night celebrations in many countries. The First Night cultural celebrations take place from afternoon till midnight and known for creating a wonderful ambiance for the new year.

The celebrations of the First Night began initially in Boston in the year 1976 and since then gained much popularity.

Students are also taught how to make handmade New Year Decorations pieces for their homes and they can also gift these handmade New Year decoration items to their relatives and friends.

New Year is celebrated all over the world and people wish all their near and dear ones a very happy and prosperous New Year.

New Year is a time to have a new start; therefore people make several New Year resolutions to be followed in the New Year.

Traditional New Year foods are also thought to bring luck. Many cultures believe that anything in the shape of a ring is good luck, because it symbolizes "coming full circle," completing a year's cycle. For that reason, the Dutch believe that eating donuts on New Year's Day will bring good fortune.

Many parts of the U.S. celebrate the new year by consuming black-eyed peas. These legumes are typically accompanied by either hog jowls or ham. Black-eyed peas and other legumes have been considered good luck in many cultures.

The hog, and thus its meat, is considered lucky because it symbolizes prosperity. Cabbage is another "good luck" vegetable that is consumed on New Year's Day by many. Cabbage leaves are also considered a sign of prosperity, being representative of paper currency. In some regions, rice is a lucky food that is eaten on New Year's Day.
